Answer : how to use classic style in Login-in window?

I think what you want is this:

Run regedit and visit this key:

HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\ThemeManager

Here, you can change the value of "ThemeActive" to 0 (zero), which will turn off themes for the login screen and you'll get the older "classic" style window for the login dialog.

Alternately, you could change the DLLName and ColorName values to a different theme/colorscheme if you wanted but it isn't necessary for the classic look (I personally use Luna Metallic by just changing the ColorName to "Metallic").

ALso of interest to you may be these keys:

HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Desktop
HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Desktop\WindowMetrics

Where under the first you can change the wallpaper, and the second houses window size settings of which you might want to change BorderWidth to 0, and maybe make CaptionHeight and SmCaptionHeight a little smaller (I use -270 and -195 respectively).

Hope this helps.
